Let me start by apologizing to all my yoga teaching and loving friends. I’m so jealous. I want to love yoga with all my heart. Over the course of 20-plus years, I have tried numerous live classes, DVDs and internet yoga programs. When I’m done, I...
I wrote this a few weeks ago, but as we enter the holiday season it seems more relevant now than ever. Regardless of your faith or lack thereof, please remember that everyone can be nice. You don’t have to believe in anything or anyone to be...
More than 20 years and thousands of dollars. That is what fighting gray hair has cost me. I started going gray in my mid 20s. I was not a fan. I battled it from day one. I was not going to be gray at 30 like my Granny. Nope. Fuck that. Throughout...
